Engagement Assistant - Galleries, Thackray Museum of Medicine

Thackray is a welcoming, safe space where we share our unique collection to help shape a better tomorrow. We empower people to understand their own healthcare choices and inspire future generations of changemakers by platforming told and untold stories of medicine and society. By embracing and representing our community, people will see themselves and better understand each other.

Situated in the bustle of a lively East Leeds inner-city community, and adjacent to St James's Hospital - Europe's largest teaching hospital, the Museum showcases innovation and collaboration in medical endeavour through its collection of over 50,000 objects and some 23,000 written works, covering all aspects of the history of medicine.

Our Engagement team looks after our museum visitors throughout their time at Thackray, developing relationships that see a wide range of people come back to the museum again and again. Through this work, the team generates essential income to support the development of our work with schools and community groups, and the development of our exhibition programme so that it speaks to everyone within our community.
